PostDoc position (m/f/d) | Theoretical Biology
The Department for Theoretical Biology at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Biology in Plön is looking for a PostDoc (m/f/d) in Theoretical Biology hired through a Human Frontiers in Science grant to work on Evolutionary Consequences of Stress-induced Mutagenesis. The grant is a collaboration between the lab of Prof. Martin Kupiec (Tel Aviv University, Israel) and the group of Prof. Arne Traulsen (MPI for Evolutionary Biology).
Requirements for the position include a strong record of self-motivated research (supported by peer-reviewed publications) and a PhD in theoretical biology, applied mathematics, theoretical physics, or a related area. In addition, we ask for excellent analytical and computational skills and a strong interest in working at the interface between evolutionary biology / yeast genetics and mathematical biology.
The position is located in Germany and initially advertised for 3 years. The start date is negotiable; the salary will be according to expertise following the German TVöD. The willingness to collaborate with our partner group in Tel Aviv (including visits once the situation in Israel allows this again) is expected.
Highly motivated applicants of any nationality are encouraged to send
a motivation letter for this position including a statement of research interests
a CV
two reference addresses and
up to three selected publications
in a single pdf file to bewerbung@evolbio.mpg.de
Screening of applications will start on December 15th, 2024, please apply before that data to receive full consideration. Questeions on the position can be directed to Arne Traulsen, traulsen@evolbio.mpg.de
The Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Biology is located in Plön, a town in a beautiful lake area with all the amenities of a touristically active area.
